OREGON OBSERVATIONS 19 JANUARY 2023

Families joined in lawsuit targeting social media as addictive, harmful to teens. While I’m rooting for the families to win their case, let’s remember it’s not ALL about the addictive social media companies. When it comes to teenagers, parents own some guilt for not enforcing a no-device policy. OK, let’s back up a couple of steps. If the parent wants their kid to carry a phone for safety – to be able to contact their parents or emergency services in case something goes wrong, buy them a device whose function is limited to phone calls. No access to the internet, because therein lies the problem. Access to the internet (along with social media sites) allows them to be cool ’cause all their friends are out there. It’s like putting the teenager in a room full of temptation, where they say they’ll only watch. They see all the other kids doing it. Next thing you know, they’re knee-deep in Tik-Tok (which has been called digital fentanyl, BTW) or whatever site is the flavor of the day, and where there’s a good chance they’ll become a target of bullying at some point, with all its negative ramifications. Kudos to the parents who spent their child’s formative years instilling positive moral values in them.

NATIONAL NOTES.1 18 JANUARY 2023

No visitor logs exist for Biden’s Wilmington home, the site of classified doc discovery, WH Counsel’s Office says. Wadda ya mean there’re no visitor logs? When #45 was in the White House, he was sued to release his visitor’s logs – at least he HAD ’em. The Idiot in Chief’s telling us he has no record of who visited him at his Delaware home during any of his frequent absences from Washington. You have to ask yourself – what the hell’s that all about? I mean, they’ve already found unsecured classified documents there, and on top of that, he’s got no record of who was in the house WITH those documents?

NATIONAL NOTES 18 JANUARY 2023

Former FBI assistant director sees ‘glaring disparity’ in DOJ’s ‘kid gloves’ treatment of Biden. ‘This is yet another example, I think, of the genteel way the left and the right are handled.’ I hope news feeds like this continue until the 2024 primaries and general election. That way, Democrats can’t say they weren’t warned. We don’t want to give them another excuse for electing an idiot, like when Hunter’s laptop story was squashed in 2020.

OREGON OBSERVATIONS.1 18 JANUARY 2023

Activists and teachers oppose school resource officers during MLK march. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. The next time some nutjob shoots up a school full of kids after the school dropped their resource officer because the kids were afraid of him, I don’t wanna hear it. All they’re gonna hear outta this site is a big “I told you so.” Next thing you know, some touchy-feely group’ll want to get rid of school crossing guards ’cause they say the kids are afraid of the uniform. One more step towards societal anarchy and voices like these are leading the way. Chicago has one of the worst records of shootings of any city in the United States. Regardless, in 2021, their worthless mayor decided to pull resource officers out of 17 high schools. That’s a WP Democrat’s logic at work.

OREGON OBSERVATIONS 18 JANUARY 2023

Non-Affiliated Voters Outnumber Democrats in Oregon. Let Them Participate in Primaries. I agree with this article’s position, but not for the same reasons. Suppose this state would allow non-affiliated voters to participate in primary elections. In that case, there’s a chance we could end the stranglehold Democrats have on this state – it certainly couldn’t get any worse than it is now. What do I mean by that? For Christ’s sake – open your eyes! 15 out of 36 counties in this state or ready to become part of Idaho rather than face another day of the Democrats’ WP authoritarianism. Have you forgotten? It’s the Democrats that brought you: no more gas cars after 2035; dopers are free to roam the streets; pot is legal; psychedelic mushrooms are permitted; they continue to try and take away your guns every chance they get; they made it so kids can graduate high school without knowing how to read or write; and last but not least, free abortions and healthcare for illegal aliens. All these WP things were brought to you by Democrats in Salem. The sooner they’re brought under control, the better off anyone with common sense will be. Let the Democrats have Portland – they’ve f⚡⭐⚡ed it up so bad nobody in their right mind would want to live there.
